“Very nicely priced tasty dinners- half chicken with suitably prepared sides- plantains, rice and beans, vegetable rice. Spicy sauces also can kick up the flavor a notch. Pleasant courteous professional staff in a clean well lighted place. I will recommend to come here“

“My family and I went here for Father's Day dinner. The service was amazing. The food wasn't the best. The breaded catfish was bland. The burgers were dry, the wings were the best thing we all agreed on, and the drinks were watered down. My daughter's ordered the lemonade, and it had a funny smell to it. It wasn't busy at all. The ambiance was good. Overall, the rating was a 3 star only because of the food.“

“I have not as of late not had the time to write! That being said, food is great, service outstanding. I would like to compliment cooks and staff!!! Also to remind people that Peruvian chicken is different style of prep!! So it is a different taste and prep. Big Ups to Campestre and staff!!!!“

“Consistently AWESOME!“

“Stayed at a local hotel and ordered from Door Dash. SECRET SPICY CHICKEN was great. Pretty much like General Tso's Chinese but a tad spicier. Large pieces of good quality chicken, even the medium order was too much for me. Pair it with steamed white rice, put the rice in the sauce. Very good.“

“Absolutely incredible every single time. Crisp & Juicy lives up to its name — the rotisserie chicken is perfectly seasoned, fall-off-the-bone tender, and packed with flavor. The skin is crispy in all the right ways, and the meat stays juicy no matter what you order.

The sides are just as good — especially the yuca fries and plantains. Everything tastes homemade and fresh. I also have to shout out the green sauce — dangerously good and goes with literally everything on the menu.

The staff are always friendly and quick, even when it’s busy. You can tell they care about their food and their customers. Whether you’re grabbing takeout or dining in, it’s consistently a great experience. Easily one of my favorite spots — I’ll keep coming back again and again. Highly recommend!

For real this place is really good“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“Both the service and food were outstanding 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟The spicy miso soup was delicious, and the noodles were incredibly chewy. I loved it!“

“Crisp & Juicy delivers exactly what its name promises—perfectly cooked Peruvian-style rotisserie chicken that’s both mouthwateringly juicy on the inside and satisfyingly crisp on the outside. The chicken is marinated in traditional Peruvian spices, slow-roasted, and served with a smoky, addictive flavor that’s hard to replicate. Their signature green and yellow sauces take everything to the next level—whether you’re dipping the chicken, fries, or even just spooning it straight. It’s simple, flavorful, and consistently well-executed.

Beyond the chicken, the sides round out the experience: yuca fries that are golden and crunchy, flavorful rice, and plantains that add a touch of sweetness. The portions are generous, the service is quick, and the vibe is laid-back—perfect for takeout or a casual meal. Crisp & Juicy doesn’t try to be fancy—it just does one thing really well: comfort food with bold flavor. It’s the kind of place that turns first-timers into loyal regulars“

“we LOVE Chick-fil-A anywhere, but this new on in DC is Amaaaaaaazing!!! Clean and neat! The staff is SO friendly! The owner is awesome and helps the community.“

“Our only issue was that there were six of us and we noticed on the bill that they automatically added gratuity without letting us know. Good thing we noticed this! Food was delicious and served fairly promptly. Nice service but we had a longer wait for drinks than I anticipated so I think they might have forgotten our drink order. Fairly loud but fun ambiance. Best Korean fried chicken ever!“

“This chicken joint is really good. Their fries and their fry sauce is 100/10 to die for!!!!!! I got the chicken’s spicy level at the 2nd most hot and it was perfect if you love a spicy adventure. I wish I had a place like this back in Seattle. 치킨은 너무 맛있고 진짜 역대급이예요!“

“Tonight was our first time in your restaurant. Great experience start to finish. It was clean and organized. The staff was incredibly friendly to a person. The customer service was great. And most importantly the food was perfectly cooked and delicious! Well done! We’ll be back!“

“Good food! Fast service, friendly and Courteous staff.“

“Probably the best place in MoCo for Peruvian chicken. It's always cooked on point and the sides are always fresh. I've tried recreating their Brussel Spouts and Carrots at home and can never get the same flavor. Much better quality that the "chains" here in MoCo.“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“Best chicken!! Hope they will open a store in FL“

“A lil customer service goes a long way! I feel like nowadays customer service is nonexisting, so the moment I have a pleasant experience…. off to reviews!!

I was there yesterday and inquired about their sauce and the employee was really sweet about. I appreciated his kind gesture and it made me love this place even more.

The food is always consistent. They give solid portions and the price is more than reasonable. Definitely recommend!“

“The order took about 15 minutes to complete. A little long, but the good came out for and fresh! Chicken was cooked just right, and the sauces were great. My favorite sauce was the honey mustard, but the other sauce was good too. The lady working in front was nice. Their slaw was awesome and the fries tasted freshly cut. I would come back next time I'm in town.“

“Maaannnn, we ordered through uber eats and good heavens we nearly fell over it was so damn good. We got the honey butter chicken , half and half lemonade and the vanilla custard, it was so delicious...haven't had good food like this in a while. Definitely will order again.“

“The food was excellent. I have never had South African cuisine before, and it made me wish I had access to it at home.“

“The corn dogs are amazing, I’ve only tried the takis and Cheeto ones but they’re just delicious. My only complaint is the picture of the chicken sandwich on the left of the board.. I think more people would buy it if the image didn’t look like poop in a bun 😭 maybe that’s just how the sandwich looks but atleast make the picture higher quality“

“Great service and very good food.“

“It's always delicious to pass by a campero! In this establishment the cashier was very friendly and attentive! And the table area was clean.

Parking: It has ample parking, you just have to be careful since the drive thru is a few steps from the entrance. It is necessary to be attentive.“

“I came here for lunch one day. There was no line to order it. The staff were friendly and my food came out very quickly. I ordered a number one combo with fries and a diet lemonade. Everything was hot and tasted great. I love how this location is not a standalone one. There are seating options inside with also some patio seating as well. The bathrooms are clean and require a code. I would definitely come back to this location again.“

“My family and I enjoy the delicious catfish, pork chop dinners and siders monthly very much. The menu drinks are very good too.“

“Muy ricos ., guarniciones deluxe 🤜🏼🤛🏼“

“This location is super fun! Let me talk about the food, I have had Peruvian chicken for example Sardis or chicken Rico. Now the chicken at those locations has a weird after taste when eating. This location chicken here taste DELICIOUS no after taste and so flavorful. We tried the chicken salad sandwich and the Thai chicken sandwich, don’t forget to order that cilantro lime sauce so fresh. The food hits the spot you gotta try it to believe it. After 4 pm this location turns into a really cool bar has pool tables, beer pong and live music performance. We met Simon and Brendan thank you so much they were so awesome to talk to explaining the flavors of the food and also how everything there is very vintage. Enjoyed a mezcal drink was delicious and strong just how I like my tequila! Hours for this spot Wednesday Thursday Sunday open till 12AM and Friday-Saturday open till 2AM. Will be a returning customer for sure. Enjoy my pics!

Parking: Has a big garage right beside the location.“

“We have been coming to this place for whole chicken. It's always good. The service was fast. But the price is quite expensive lately. $17 per a whole chicken could be pricy for some people because they can get it cheaper from somewhere eles. But if you like convenience, this is the place to go.“

“Super Underrated establishment and deserves some love and more customers! Services from employees are always very friendly and they’re open super late. Sandwich and waffle fries are both delicious and and a big portion. I also love the variety of sauces they have offered.“

“I was really impressed by the food here. The sandwich was delicious and the portion of fries was massive. The honey butter chicken sandwich is seriously greasy — literally dripping with oil — but let’s be real, you’re not ordering a fried chicken sandwich to be healthy. You can order with an iPad and get texted when your order is ready, and Western Market has plenty of seating inside and out. I’ll come back again the next time I have a craving for oily goodness.“

“The last 3 times we used the drive through our order was wrong. Sometimes the sauces were wrong, Sometimes the dressing for the salad and today the milkshake was handed to my husband in such a way that it wound up in his lap. We love your food but your service is in need of improvement.“

“Great customer service prices are good as well“

“Service was great and the food superb! I had the chicken sandwich. It was delicious! Hot, and I savored every bite. Well seasoned. The Mac n cheese was piping hot and creamy. The cold slaw was good. This is the best Popeye’s in DC. If I want Popeye’s, I’m driving all the way from Oxon Hill to MLK!“

“I totally recommend having a kids Birthday party or a small gathering here it’s very affordable compared to event spaces prices these days. Everything was setup and ready the food was good and the guest was impressed!!! 10/10 the service was amazing I recommend Shay as ur host she helped me from Start to finish!“

“Their food is the best my favorite is torta mexicana ,pescado frito their fries taste so delicious dip in there white sauce I also Love their customer service and how family-friendly they are . There dessert is die for .“

“Chicken is great me and my friend ordered from here he got the 3pc with fries they forgot the fries tried calling the store but no answer so I took off a star, also the quencher was delicious but the cup size was to small make it bigger please 🙏🏽 I got the spaghetti with a 2pcs the spaghetti was on the sweet side but not to bad service was exceptional I believe our cashier was kelmira she was great other than that we would really like the fries they forgot our order came up to $38 thank you“

“This location without a doubt is the best Nandos location I've had the absolute pleasure of visiting during my time in DC. I visited DC over a year ago, and tried Nandos for the very first time and was absolutely blown away by the quality, affordability, and the options available, it was so good in fact, that my friends and I visited this location MULTIPLE times in a single weekend.

The atmosphere here is lovely, and everyone working here is friendly and genuinely cares about maintaining a well running and consistent establishment, the managers seem to be on duty and working just as much as every other employee and that is how it should be at a place like this in my mind.

I recently had the pleasure of returning to DC and was pleasantly surprised that this Nandos was just as good as I remembered it being a year ago, and I hope that it continues to be a staple of my DC visits in the future (we went more than once again and I have zero regrets). Do yourself a favor and check this place out if you can.“

“Nice neighborhood & foods“
